Question

Find the quotient:
50x^2-32y^2/-5x-4y

Answer 1

First, factor the numerator.

Answer 2

Then, factor out a -1 from the denominator.

Answer 3

you can also divide by the numerator to find the quotient.

Answer 4

@mathstudent55 Explain a bit more if you can.

Answer 5

Do you know how to factor a two-term polynomial, like your numerator?
First, try to factor out a common term.

Answer 6

idk

Answer 7

The first rule of factoring is to try to factor out a common factor.
Look at the numerator, \(50x^2 - 32y^2\)
Do the terms 50x^2 and -32y^2 have a factor in common?
If so, factor it out.
